Abstract
Spectral unmixing methods with medium-resolution remote sensing images have become the main approach to mapping urban impervious-surface information. However, as more tall buildings appear, numerous visible shadows exist in medium-resolution images; these have usually been ignored in
previous research, but they seriously affect accuracy. To solve this problem, we propose a combined unmixing framework to extract impervious surface in nonshadow and shadow areas, using linear and nonlinear unmixing models, respectively. First shadow is separated from nonshadow. Then a nonlinear
unmixing method is selected to map impervious surface in shadow, which is more suitable to the complex imaging environment in shadow, and a classic linear unmixing model in nonshadow. Through experimental tests, the proposed combined unmixing framework is shown to effectively reduce error
in two study areas compared with classical unmixing methods.
